  sc_mempool.cpp - Memory pools for small objects.

  Original Author: Stan Y. Liao, Synopsys, Inc.

  CHANGE LOG AT END OF FILE
 *****************************************************************************/




//  <sc_mempool> is a class that manages the memory for small objects,
//  of sizes <increment>, 2 * <increment>, ..., <num_pools> *
//  <increment>.  When a memory request of <k> bytes is made through
//  the memory pool, the smallest pool <j> such that <j> * <increment>
//  >= <k> is used.  The default values of <increment> and <num_pools>
//  are 8 and 8, respectively.  Each pool has an allocator, that
//  simply keeps a free list of cells, and allocate new blocks
//  whenever necessary.  We are relying on malloc() to return a
//  properly aligned memory blocks.  Note that the memory blocks
//  allocated by the mempool are never freed.  Thus, if purify is
//  used, we may get MIU (memory-in-use) warnings.  To disable this,
//  set the environment variable SYSTEMC_MEMPOOL_DONT_USE to 1.

//  An allocator is one that handles a particular size.  It keeps a
//  <free_list> from which a cell may be allocated quickly if there
//  is one available.  If no cell is available from <free_list>, then
//  the allocator tries to find whether space is available from the
//  most-recently-allocated block, as pointed to by <next_avail>.  If
//  so, then the cell pointed to by <next_avail> is returned, while
//  <next_avail> is advanced.  If <next_avail> now points beyond
//  the current block, then it's reset to 0.  On the other hand,
//  if <next_avail> was 0 when a request to the block is made, then
//  a new block is allocated by calling system malloc(), and the new
//  block becomes the head of <block_list>.
